I remember how some time ago I drew my fantasy on a sheet of paper in my note-book. And one of those sketches turned in a whole voyage.
I remember how I bargained to pay only 8 euros for a Jamaican flag at a store in Barcelona owned by some Indians. It is just that they did not have the flag of my homeland — Costa-Rica. But then Robertino Loretti came to my rescue.

I remember how some time ago I drew my fantasy on a sheet of paper in my note-book. And one of those sketches turned in a whole voyage.
I remember how I bargained to pay only 8 euros for a Jamaican flag at a store in Barcelona owned by some Indians. It is just that they did not have the flag of my homeland — Costa-Rica. But then Robertino Loretti came to my rescue.

I remember how, across the Upper Volga planes, up to the very reggae-bank a girl was riding with this Jamaican flag, stuck into a bicycle seat, while I was just following her and the young Robertino loudly sang from my stereo... «Jamaaaaaaa-aaaaica...» Tum dum dum dum... tum dum dum..., repeated the orchestra.

I remember how I simply photographed what I at the time considered to be beautiful.
